"Les Chants de Maldoror stands as a groundbreaking work, celebrated as one of the earliest and most extraordinary examples of Surrealist writing. This long narrative prose poem passionately celebrates the principle of Evil in an elaborate style, akin to religious fanaticism. Little is known of the author of Maldoror, Isidore Ducasse, self-styled Comte de Lautréamont, except that he was born in Montevideo, Uruguay in 1846 and died in Paris at the age of twenty-four. When first published in 1868-9, Maldoror went almost unnoticed. But in the nineties the book was rediscovered and hailed as a work of genius by such eminent writers as Huysmans, Léon Bloy, Maeterlinck, and Rémy de Gourmont. Later still, Lautréamont was canonized as one of their principal 'ancestors' by the Paris Surrealists. This edition, translated by Guy Wernham, includes a long introduction to a never-written, or now lost, volume of poetry. Thus, except for a few letters, it gives all the surviving literary work of Lautréamont."--Provided by publisher.
